Month: June 2013

“Twitter: @CarlaDauden / Instagram: carla_dauden This video was recorded right before the recent protests started, but with all of this going on, it becomes even more evident that the World Cup and the Olympics should not be our priority. The world has to know about what’s really going on.”
No kidding! This is a really clear, concise description of what’s actually going on in Brasil.

“Math is invisible. Unlike physics, chemistry, and biology we can’t see it, smell it, or even directly observe it in the universe. And so that has made a lot of really smart people ask, does it actually even EXIST?!?!”
This is another PBS short, of which there have been a few really good ones lately. I like.

“Audio mixed by dj BC. Video by Thriftshop XL. From the album “Ill Submarine” coming June 2013.”

“President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton’s former speechwriter Jon Lovett shares life lessons about authenticity, integrity and fighting ‘the culture of bullshit’ at the 2013 Pitzer College Commencement on May 18.”
This was sent in to me by many subscribers and I strongly recommend it. Not many things will make me laugh out loud. This one did, several times. The man is funny.

“I really liked this interview about failure and how to deal with it. It’s no longer online at it’s original source, so I uploaded it here so that others could enjoy it.”
I love James Murphy. I miss LCD Soundsystem. Recommended.

“The first playable beer. 19th Century technology meets 21st Century music over a bottle of beer in the latest extension to the Beck’s Record Label project.”
Making the rounds.
This project received a standing ovation when it was unveiled. Crazy!

“Documentary on Argentinian artist Irina Werning whose Back to the Future project went viral on the internet, made using footage from Irina’s personal archive of the project in which she painstakingly recreates people cherished old photo’s.”
Key word being “painstakingly.” These are great.
